Unfortunately, Abuelo's closed recently. It was one of my favorite restaurants in town and we will miss it. Hopefully, the chain will come back to our area someday.

We were started iff with corn chips and four types of salsas! All were delicious and lots of fun to try and compare. Raspberry iced tea was perfect. Entrees were not absolutely the we'd sver had, but were very, very good. Waitress was top notch! Oh, and they had some options other than the traditional bean and rice sides, including... More

Went to Abuelos on a Sunday evening at 7:00 P.M. We were staying next door at the Baymont Inn and Suites and had arrived a little later than expected. We (myself, wife, 21 year old daughter, and 10 year old daughter) were very hungry as we had been travelling all day. This is a very nice looking restaurant with what... More

Food was fine but a bit pricy. Margaritas are more the Planter's Punch/Kool-Aid format than some of the harder versions available to residents of NW OH. Dining facilities are veyr nice.

What a neat experience! This restaurant is beautiful inside. It has a very elegant and charming appeal. The food was great! I would say that this is one of the best Mexican restaurants I've been to. I thought the prices were slightly expensive but I'm not a big spender. Our server was really nice and even though the restaurant was... More

We went with some family members and WOW, was a very nice surprise. Not just the price but the food... More

The food was excellent. Prices were within reason for a restaurant of this type. Meals for 4 adults, 2 children and tip came to $65 (no alcohol). Unfortunately, our order was placed right behind a party of about 25 people, so it took a while to get it, but overall was worth the wait. The server was apologetic and took... More

Went here on Valentines day, expecting a long wait and poor service. The service was ok, but we got right in and had a good dining experience. Abuelo's seems to always have a table waiting, but the experience is always positive. They have great choices and combinations, and good sides. Nice overall experience.
